Minor struck out five and walked four while holding the Reds to one run on one hits over 7.2 innings Friday night. The Braves' offense didn't play the eventual game-winning run until extra innings, preventing Minor from finding his way into the win column. Minor carried a no-hitter into the eighth inning Friday, while the appearance lowered his season ERA to 4.90 (the first time since July 12 he's been below 5.00), and marked his third consecutive quality start.
